MADE IN JAPAN
Certified Hinoki Craftsmanship
/ MORE THAN A BATHTUB
In Japan, bathing is not
a routine. It is a ritual.
The hinoki cypress has been used in Japanese bathhouses and royal residences for over a thousand years. Its warmth, its scent, and its antibacterial properties make it unlike any other material you can choose for a bath.
A hinoki bath is not a luxury purchase β it is a long-term decision about how you want to live. The aroma is gentle and deeply calming. The wood warms naturally to the touch. The experience is entirely different from porcelain, stone, or acrylic.
Japan Homes brings certified Japanese hinoki baths to Australian clients β architects, developers, homeowners, and boutique accommodation projects who understand that some things cannot be compromised.
βHinoki is not chosen for how it looks. It is chosen for how it makes you feel.β
/ WHY HINOKI
Eight reasons clients choose
a Japanese hinoki bath.
Handcrafted in Japan
Every bath is made to order by specialist Japanese craftsmen. No mass production. No compromise.
Natural Hinoki Aroma
The characteristic scent of hinoki cypress is scientifically shown to reduce cortisol and promote deep relaxation. It is unlike any synthetic alternative.
Antibacterial Properties
Hinoki contains natural antibacterial compounds that inhibit mould and bacteria β making it exceptionally well-suited for a wet room environment.
Premium Wood Grade
Only certified Kiso-Hinoki or Aomori-Hiba is used β the most prized timber grades in Japan, selected for grain, density, and aroma.
Residential & Hospitality
Designed for premium private homes, high-end renovations, and boutique accommodation projects with discerning wellness and design standards.
Indoor & Outdoor Models
Available in configurations suited to both interior bathrooms and outdoor settings such as garden, deck, or enclosed outdoor spa spaces.

/ WHO THIS IS FOR
Not for everyone.
Exactly right for some.
Premium Homeowners
For the master bathroom of a home where materials matter. A hinoki bath is a statement about how you choose to live β not how you choose to spend.
Architects & Interior Designers
Specifying hinoki for a client project. We work with design professionals to ensure dimensions, drainage, and finish are precisely right.
Boutique Accommodation
Ryokan-inspired rooms, luxury cabins, retreats, and hotel suites. A hinoki bath creates a guest experience that cannot be replicated by any other product.
Japandi & Natural Interiors
Working with natural materials, warm neutrals, and Japanese-influenced aesthetics. Hinoki is the authentic centrepiece your project has been building toward.
/ WHAT TO KNOW BEFORE YOU ORDER
Natural wood. Genuine care.
Long-term reward.
A hinoki bath rewards those who care for it properly. The following notes help ensure your bath performs beautifully for many years.
Avoid over-drying
After each use, leave a small amount of water in the bath to prevent the wood from drying and cracking excessively.
Ventilation is essential
Good airflow around and above the bath prevents mould and extends the life of the timber significantly.
Use a dedicated cleaner
Only use cleaners designed for natural wood baths. Harsh chemicals will damage the surface and remove natural oils.
Regular maintenance
Periodic application of food-grade mineral oil or dedicated hinoki care product maintains the wood and aroma.
Made to order
All baths are produced in Japan upon order confirmation. Lead times are typically 8β16 weeks and are confirmed at the time of order.
Confirm access and dimensions
Hinoki baths are heavy and solid. Confirm doorway widths, staircase access, and floor loading capacity with your builder before ordering.
